Substitute values at runtime [message #736062]

Hi,

I am developing a plugin. For it I have a PreferencePage ( call it MyPreferencePage).
In MyPreferencePage I have a StringFieldEditor where I can place certain parameters that I want to replace at runtime.

Example:

HelperText: form_user{currentHw}

When running the plugin I will use this helper text in an input field as guideance for the user. And I want to substitute {currentHw} with the actual value from the plugin.

To get the value I use:

provider.getCurrentHw();//Plugin specific data.

My idea is to use reflection to access this value but I am most likely not the first so I wonder if someone else has done this and has a more efficient way Smile

?

br,
